    Avalere Health delves into a multimedia cancer anthology while ViiV boosts PrEP during Pride

    It’s not easy to talk about cancer. After all, cancer is a broad, yet deeply personal disease state. There are common cancers, rare cancers, cancers with preventative treatment options and challenging cancers that are usually terminal.  Nearly every medical marketing agency has to message around this incredibly complicated, sensitive health topic – for some it’s even their sole focus.  Across MM+M’s digital, print and audio arms, we tend to cover a lot of cancer awareness campaigns and major scientific developments in the oncology space. The attention paid to cancer now extends well past the awareness months dedicated to the various subsets of the disease.  Our pharma editor Lecia Bushak just returned from ASCO, where thousands converged to discuss the future of cancer and how we should communicate about it. Cancer is the subject of countless decades of research by some of the leading academic institutions around the world as well as the subject of acute anxiety experienced by patients and their caregivers.  With that in mind, Avalere Health CEO Amar Urhekar returns to the show alongside chief creative officer TJ Cimfel to discuss the Within Reach project. Launched shortly before ASCO, Within Reach isn’t a campaign from the Agency 100 honoree. As the two Avalere Health leaders explain, Within Reach is a multimedia anthology that supports patients and caregivers with real-life stories and clinical insights to better understand and navigate all aspects of cancer care.  And in lieu of the Trends segment, our reporter Bella Czajkowski brings us a conversation with ViiV Healthcare about its latest PrEP campaign during Pride Month.    Check us out at: mmm-online.com   Follow us:  YouTube: @MMM-online TikTok: @MMMnews Instagram: @MMMnewsonline Twitter/X: @MMMnews LinkedIn: MM+M   To read more of the most timely, balanced and original reporting in medical marketing, subscribe here.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

    Trends in Oncology and What Makes Community Oncology the Place to Move the Needle, sponsored by Patient Point

    The oncology landscape is shifting fast toward APPs being the standard of care due to a growing doctor shortage and nearly 30% of oncologists nearing retirement. Community oncology has emerged as a critical and often underleveraged setting where much of that change is playing out. This session gives marketers a closer look at those trends, the unique dynamics of community oncology and actionable takeaways for reaching today's care team more effectively.

    Building a cohesive strategy to improve congress HCP experiences: Takeaways from ASCO 2026, a podcast sponsored by Inizio Evoke

    ASCO is the top scientific and clinical data conference in oncology, but it has also increasingly become an important strategic and commercial inflection point for the entire pharma industry. In this podcast episode, recorded live at ASCO 2026, Inizio Medical chief client officer Nancy Sladicka, Ph.D., and Inizio Evoke chief medical officer Matthew Hoelzle, Ph.D., break down the biggest marketing and strategic trends happening at the conference — including the increasing investment in medical affairs at pharma booths, how the conference has changed over the years and the ways marketers can boost their delegate interactions and experiences in the congress setting. They also discuss the need for clarity in data presentations and how marketers can employ AI to improve engagement and data analysis.

    Cancer Progress LIVE from ASCO: Building a value narrative that holds up across patients, clinicians and payers, a podcast sponsored by Lumanity

    Most oncology stories fail because the core of the value story gets interpreted differently across stakeholders. This episode breaks down how to build and communicate an aligned innovation and value narrative that moves from scientific discovery to clinical conversations, payer decisions, and patient realities without losing credibility. It is designed for teams who live in the data and need a value story that holds up in the market, from guideline and pathway discussions to payer review and day-to-day care.

    The 2026 MM+M Agency 100, explained

    Much like planning a wedding, the MM+M Agency 100 is an exercise in “hurry up and wait.”  This project is the result of a long, time-consuming process that requires steadfast dedication and commitment from everyone here at MM+M in order to see it through to the end.  Then, that special day arrives.  After months and months of tireless work on all things big and small, everything comes together into a blur of frenzied celebration and, equally as important, pure elation.  The 2026 MM+M Agency 100 is here and we’re going to dig into the medical marketing firms we’ve been interviewing, writing and reporting on over the past five months.  In lieu of Trends, you’ll hear some takeouts from our Women of Distinction ceremony that took place last week in New York.  Check us out at: mmm-online.com   Follow us:  YouTube: @MMM-online TikTok: @MMMnews Instagram: @MMMnewsonline Twitter/X: @MMMnews LinkedIn: MM+M   To read more of the most timely, balanced and original reporting in medical marketing, subscribe here.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

    Preclinical, clinical and real-world evidence provides the scientific narrative on which the value proposition is built, a podcast sponsored by Citrus Health Group

    An engaging scientific narrative supported by strong preclinical, clinical and real-world evidence must be clearly communicated to all audiences to establish the value proposition. It starts with a deep understanding of the patient journey and unmet needs, insights into the outcomes that are meaningful, an integrated evidence generation plan and ongoing assessment of communications effectiveness. New evidence has to be generated to fill any gaps in the value proposition to ensure consistent message flow. Optichannel approaches must engage audiences long enough to precipitate a change in perception and subsequent behavioral modification.
